The screen resolution in many respects refers to thoseParameters that provide comfortable work at the computer. It is important not only to configure the optimal appearance of icons or panels with a certain clarity of the display, but also to do so in such a way that the eyes do not get tired, and the expanded windows of programs are placed in the space of the monitor reserved for them.
Initially, it is necessary to solve the problem of howChange the screen resolution in Windows 10. You can do this in several ways, which you will find in our article. Separately, it will be said why sometimes it is impossible to change the screen resolution (Windows 10, as we already understand, we take as the basis of the operating system). Accordingly, solutions will be proposed to eliminate such problems.
Unlike their predecessors, the tenth versionsystem has acquired a new toolkit in which the main parameters and settings are concentrated. And this is not the "Control Panel", but the "Options" menu, although access to the settings can be made without directly entering this section. How can I change the screen resolution in Windows 10 in this case?
As before, first in the free spaceYou need to create a desktop PCM, and in the menu select a line of screen settings (not personalization). After that, the corresponding settings section will appear, in which you just need to set the required mode.
If no updates have been installed for the systemlike Anniversary Update or Creators Update, then you need to use a string of additional parameters to access the settings. In the new section, you can launch detection of supported modes, if the desired one is not displayed in the list, but this is unlikely.
Also in systems without upgrading to the aboveUpdates of assemblies can be applied and the classic method, consisting in using a standard control panel, which is unclear why is hidden from the user's eyes further away.
Call the most simple way it can be throughconsole "Run" (Win + R) by typing the command in the field. How can I change the screen resolution in Windows 10 using this toolkit? Too simple. Select the "Screen" section in the list and click on the "Setting permission" link, then set the necessary parameters and save the changes made.
However, it's worth repeating: this method is applicable only to "clean" systems, and if there are installed upgrades, this section is not in the control panel.
For the most known types of video cards, the question ofHow to change the resolution of the screen in Windows 10, is solved due to the use of control utilities. For Radeon graphics adapters, it's best to use the AMD Catalyst utility. At least, the settings in it are much larger than in the system itself.
Because the application embeds its commands incontext menu of the system, you can call it through the PCM menu on the desktop. Here, you must first use the control bar for the desktop, and then go to the desktop properties. The settings for the area will show all available permissions. Select the desired one and save the settings.
For video adapters of this manufacturer, you can use the NVIDIA control panel. Here too, problems should not be.
In the left-hand menu, you select the resolution change, then the desired mode is set in the available list, and the options applied are saved.
But what if you can not changescreen resolution in Windows 10 by any means? In general, the reason lies solely in the absence or incorrect installation of graphics drivers.
Despite the fact that for the most part this applies tointegrated cards, sometimes such situations can be observed with discrete adapters. There is only one solution to fix the problem: updating or completely reinstalling the corresponding software. In the simplest case, you can use the Device Manager, where the corresponding update point is selected on the selected object via the PCM. Also, through the properties of the card, you can generally remove it from the system, and after detecting the adapter the drivers will be installed automatically. But it is better to use the original disks with drivers or software packages downloaded from the manufacturers' websites.
It happens that you can not change the screen resolution inWindows 10 only because the equipment is non-standard, and the driver chosen by the system (in its opinion, the most suitable) does not work. In this case, use the information tab, where in the list of properties, select the equipment ID, copy the longest line containing the DEV and VEN ID values, set it to search the Internet, then download the driver and install it yourself.
As can be seen from all of the above, the question of shiftingThe resolution of the screen is quite simple. In the case of integrated adapters, you can use only the settings of the system itself. But in the presence of discrete video cards, there are much more options for tuning, not to mention some advanced features. Problems are eliminated solely by the described actions regarding drivers or related software. Perhaps, although not always, it will be necessary to update the corresponding platforms. In particular, this may concern the installation of updates for DirectX in the form of the latest version and its most recent updates, but this, as they say, just in case.
